This is a history of my personal artwork. There is no
chronological sequence to the presentation of my pieces,
My personal work consists of paintings and sculptures

created purely for my satisfaction, or from that of close

friends and family members.
I love working with oils and acrylics, building up
washes and thick layers of paint to create the desired
effect is a satisfying process for me.
Having a full time job as an artist for American
Greetings allows me to support myself and my family
financially, and gives me the freedom to create my
personal artwork on my own terms and at my leisure.
I hope you find it all interesting.
